He said to stop using money

He said to give up the coin they have and no longer use money between them. To share freely, so that Cesar couldn’t extract tax income from them in any way When the tax man shows up, you give them whatever they want and leave them frustrated. You return the coins you have to Cesar, and without stockpiles of goods the tax man would have to go house to house collecting random goods. You have no money to take, no grainary to take a portion of An empire can’t run off taking miscellaneous things from each pantry
